Background: To compare the effectiveness and safety of laparoscopic colposuspension using sutures (LCS) versus mesh and staples (LCM) in the treatment of female stress urinary incontinence.
Methods: This randomized study was conducted over a total of 80 women with genuine stress urinary incontinence between January 2020 and April 2022. Women were randomly assigned to the LCS group (n = 40) or the LCM group (n = 40). They underwent objective evaluations, including a standardized stress test, a 24-hour pad test, and a frequency-volume chart. Subjective assessments were made using a quality-of-life questionnaire.
Results: The LCS group exhibited superior outcomes in PAD test improvement (from 147 [31-304] to 3 [0-300] at 1 year, p < 0.001), stress test scores (from 82 [11-153] to 1 [0-124] at 1 year, p < 0.001), and mean micturated volume (increase from 294 ± 65 to 321 ± 57 at 1 year, p = 0.037) compared to the LCM group. Urodynamic findings revealed a higher Maximum Urethral Closure Pressure in the LCS group (33.1 ± 6.9) versus the LCM group (28.3 ± 6.4, p = 0.002). Quality of life improvements were significantly better in the LCS group across various domains. However, the LCM group benefitted from shorter surgery duration, hospital stays, and bladder drainage duration.
Conclusion: LCS demonstrates significant advantages over LCM in treating female stress urinary incontinence, particularly in cure rates and quality of life improvements. Despite the operational benefits of LCM in terms of reduced surgery and recovery times, LCS offers superior therapeutic outcomes.
